In blind test we did not found any audible difference between both system, however the properly configured (takes some time to customize the appearance....) jriver/Jremote combination was much better handling my extensive library .
Bricasti M1 SE DAC -> Pass labs XP30 & XP25 phono -> Bryston B28sst2 -> Sonus Faber Amati Futura -> JRiver MC 21 -> Synology NAS / Quboz - Denon DP 7000 SME 5012
D1000pro -> Magico V2 -> Fanless NUC i5 (Broadwell) -> Jriver MC 21/ Bauer DPS3i / Lyra Kleos
